in reference to one deamon killing off another on the UNIX-PC each of the
programs ph smgr and wmgr control a few keys on the keyboard and a space on the
top line of the unixpc if any of these programs dies for any reason at all like
odd instructions being sent to them etc. thier area on the top line goes blank.
The 'w' Icon is owned by wmgr and is in /dev/w4
The center are is owned by smgr and is /dev/w5
and the left is /dev/w3 and owned by ph
the windows on the UNIX PC are a neat idea and if there is some interest I have
made up some programs to use these from the shell without hitting suspd or the
like. also if you are tired of a non full 80x24 shell window from the office I
have a program to resize your current window to full screen and some routines
to make up arbitrary sizes and places for windows if you have a particular
request and a compiler I can mail the source with a short explanation or post
it if there is interest.
I am killer!dga
